heres another one I don't like the name any suggestions? maybe internet love song? or is it worth naming?
I played it with a capo on the first fret. I left the chorus out between the 2nd and third verses not sure why just though it was to much with it in the song three times. open to suggestions.

after getting a few suggestions I also realized that besides a title  It needed something more so I added another verse I think closes it.
story of my life I guess working the oil field just cant think of a good title any suggestions?

(G) spent half of my life on the(C) gulfs open(G) waters
(G) the other half drinking(D) trying not to(G) fall
(G) dodging the foot steps(C) left by my(G) father
(G)but I hear the voice of his(D) ghost down the hall

(D)these blood shot eyes are a(C) window
(D)to a soul that's been (C)battered and (G)bruised
(D)I've been scared and left un(C)attended
(D)I've been stained by the(C) devils own(G) brew

now I cant escape the blood in my veins
its part of a curse and it came my name
there aint no reasons for the demons in me
I never saw depression war or disease



these blood shot eyes are a window
to a soul that's been battered and bruised
I've been scared and left unattended
I've been stained by the devils own brew

now I like the whiskey just a little to much
some call it a weakness some call it a crutch
so what if I like to get drunk everyday
I pick up my whiskey my guitar and play

but these blood shot eyes are a window
to a soul that's been battered and bruised
I've been scared and left unattended
I've been stained by the devils own brew


now I walk in the foot steps left by my father
but I cant blame him for the path that choose
each one of us must look in the mirror
and see our own truth that we cannot refuse

ok going to try another one


(D) I go to a quiet place in place (D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G) in my mind
(D) sometimes the silence (D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G) is hard to find
(D) I ask myself a question (D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G) as old as time
(D) the answer to which in this life (D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G) we will never find
(D) they say only God knows (D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G) but he wont say why
(Em) I guess we'll find out (G)on the other(D) side(D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G)
(Em)the truth will find you (G) on the other (D) side(D4) (D) (D4) (D) (G)


some times this guitar           it speaks to me
but sometimes the message          even I cant see
just some words on a paper           they disappear
did anybody listen         did anybody hear
I guess we'll find out on the other side
the truth will find you on the other side


sometimes I wonder    what's over there
should we even question      should we even dare
does it really matter       does anybody care
the only one who can answer    is the man upstairs
I guess we'll find out on the other side
the truth will find you on the other side
(Em)on the other side(G) on the other(D) side

just note with my lack of musical knowledge I made a mistake transcribing .  that Cm7 should read a Cmaj7. different sound and a whole lot easier chord to form.

can any one tell me how to post a link to recording on sound cloud?

thanks for the input I guess I need to record it to give an idea of how I think it should sound

one of a handful of songs I have written. thought I would post one  and see what comments I get on it.

[Cm7] blue moon rising[G] over the pines
[Cm7] shining softly [G] like a mellow wine
[Cm7] and in the shadows [G]she comes to me
[Cm7] no place in this world[G] id rather be

chorus
[Em]blue moon sh[C]ine your light on m[G]e
[Em] in your l[C]ight our love will b[G]e
[D] don't let the m[C]orning  in to s[g]oon
[D] shine all n[C]ight for me blue m[G]oon

I don't want this night to ever end
ill always remember where our love began
under neath that moon she held me tight
never want to see the morning light

chorus

and when the morning comes
as it always will
the flame may falter but I love you still
and when some day that blue moon returns
underneath that rare moon light
our flame will burn

chorus
